This spectacular fossil footprint was found in July of 2000 by amateur
archaeologist, Alvis Delk of Stephenville, Texas and is now on display at the
Creation Evidence Museum, Glen Rose, TX. Mr. Delk found the loose slab against
the bank of the Paluxy River, about one mile north of Dinosaur Valley State
Park. He flipped over the rock and saw an excellent dinosaur track, so he took
it home where it sat in his living room for years, with hundreds of other
fossils.

Early in 2008 he had a devastating accident. He fell off of a roof incurring
damage that required months of hospitalization. He still has a dangerous blood
clot in his brain.

When he returned to his home, he decided he would sell the dinosaur track,
thinking Dr. Carl Baugh of the nearby Creation Evidence Museum would pay a few
hundred dollars for it. He began to clean the rock, and that was when he
discovered the fossil human footprint underneath the dried clay!

The human footprint had been made first, and shortly thereafter (before the
mud turned to stone), a dinosaur stepped in the mud with its middle toe
stepping on top of the human track. You can actually see the displaced mud from
the dinosaur's middle toe inside the human footprint.

Spiral CT scans are used to generate images of the inside of an object from
a large series of two-dimensional X-ray images taken around a single axis of
rotation. This technology provides an effective means of analyzing fossil
footprints without physically destroying them. It allows us to see inside the
rock, specifically, under the footprint.

The slab was taken to the Glen Rose medical center where spiral CT scans
were performed on the rock. Over 800 X-ray images document density changes
within the rock that correspond precisely with the fossil footprints. Of
course, carvings would show no corresponding structures beneath them. The
existence of following contours beneath the fossil footprints dramatically
demonstrate the authenticity of both tracks.

According to evolutionary theory, the dinosaur tracks at Glen Rose, TX were
made at least 100 million years before humans were supposed to have evolved. Of
course dinosaurs and humans cannot be stepping in each other's footprint if
they are millions of year apart. These footprints provide profound evidence
refuting the evolutionary myth.
